Connecticut Continental Troops, Third Regiment - General Putnam, 1775
Regiment raised on the first call for troops by the Legislature at special session of April-May, 1775. It was recruited in Windham County, with one Company from New London County, as indicated by the residences of the officers. Marching in May by companies to the camps forming around Boston, it was stationed during the siege in Putnam's Center Division at Cambridge until expiration of term of service, Dec. 10, 1775. In July it was adopted as Continental. A detachment of the officers and men was engaged at Bunker Hill, as stated in the note on the battle appended to the last company; a few men also joined the Quebec expedition. In re-enlisting troops for service in 1776, this regiment was re-organized with Benedict Arnold, then before Quebec, as Colonel.

NOTE ON BUNKER HILL
The number of Connecticut troops present at this engagement was about four hundred. As far as letters and meagre records show they were detailed as follows: On the evening of June 16, '75, a body of one thousand men from the Massachusetts and Connecticut regiments around Cambridge, under the immediate command of Col. Prescott, was ordered to Charlestown ---- to fortify Bunker's (Breed's) Hill. Of this number two hundred were from Conn. under the command of Capt. Knowlton, the detachment being made up of details of one subaltern officer and about thirty men from companies in Putnam's and Spencer's regiments. Lt.-Col. Storrs, of Putnam's, states that he sent from his company, "Lieut. Dana, Serjt. Fuller, Corp. Webb and 28 Privates." Capt. Chester, of Spencer's, states that thirty-one went from his company, probably under Lieut. Stephen Goodrich. Putnam's company was represented by Lieut. Grosvenor and thirty men.
Prescott's command, working all night, completed a redoubt which threatened the British shipping. Lord Howe determined to drive the "rebels" from it, and the battle of Bunker Hill followed, June 17. During the progress of the action, Captain Knowlton and the Connecticut men, with others, were sent to the left where they posted themselves behind a stone wall and inflicted heavy loss upon the enemy. Reinforcements from the American camp arrived both before and during the battle. Among them were the whole or portions of at least three companies of Connecticut troops. Captain Chester reached the stone wall with the rest of his company, perhaps sixty men, and Captains Clark and Coit, of Parsons' regiment, also arrived. These with the two hundred detailed the evening before would make about four hundred as Connecticut's representation at the battle.
Among the Connecticut officers mentioned as present in the action were Gen. Putnam, in general command, Major ----, Captains Chester, Clark, Coit, Lieuts. Dana, Keyes, Hide, Webb, Grosvenor, Bingham (of Norwich), and Ensigns Hill and Bill (of Lebanon). A few of the men's names are also reported, namely: Roger Fox, William Cheeney, Ashel Lyon, Benjamin ----, Samuel Ashbo, Gershom Smith, Matthew Cummings, Daniel Memory -- killed; Philip Johnston, Wilson Rowlandson, Lawrence Sullivan, William Robinson, Benjamin Ross -- prisoners: Gershom Clark, of Lebanon, wounded: James Law, of Lebanon -- right arm broken; John Arnold, Ebenezer Clark, Elijah Abbe, William Clark, Beriah Geer, Nathan Richardson, William Watrous, Sylvanus Snow, William Moore, John Wampee, and Timothy Bugbee -- lost their guns in the fight. As to losses, one account given fourteen killed and thirty wounded among the Connecticut men. Dr. Philip Turner is mentioned as "attend wounded ---- Charlestown Battle." Lawrence Sullian, prisoner, was released Feb. 24, '76. William Crane, of Wethersfield, Chester's Co., as in the action.
Lieut.-Col. Storrs makes the following entry in his diary (MSS.) June 17, the day of the battle:
"At sunrise this morning a fire began from y. ships, but moderate. About 10 went down to y. Hill to Genl. Putnam's Post, ---- has y. command. Some shot whistled around us. Tarried there a spell and Returned to have my company in readliness to relieve them -- One Killed and 1 wounded when I came away. About 2 o'clock there was a brisk cannonade from y. ships on y. Battery or Entrenchment. At ---- orders came to turn out immediately, and that the Regulars were landing at sundry places. Went to Head Quarters to our Regimental ----. Received orders to repair with our regiments to No. 1, and defend it. No enemy appearing -- orders soon came that our People in the Intrenchment were retreating and for us to secure y. retreat. Immediately marched for their relief. The Regulars did not come off from Bunker's Hill but have taken possession of the Intrenchments and our People make a stand on Winter Regiment under Putnam's directions. Had but little sleep the night."
